I am very excited to be joining the Year 3 team. I have been a teacher for over twenty

years, teaching in six different schools, in three counties. I knew that Bridgewater

School was a special place from the moment I entered, choosing to send my own

children here. I was thrilled when the opportunity arose to work here.

I have taught across all primary key stages taking on various roles including leadership.

My subject specialism is Music, this is something I am passionate about. I hope that

this will be reflected in the children coming home and singing you new songs and

rhymes! I will also be teaching Year 2 Music as part of their Forest School rotation.

I enjoy spending time with my family. We love discovering new places, including parks,

cafés and swimming pools! I love learning and trying new things. I have recently gained a

Level 1 Certificate in British Sign Language and I will be undertaking a Children’s

Mental Health course next year. In my free time, I sing in a local choir and enjoy yoga

classes.

It is a real privilege to be part of the children’s journey at Bridgewater and I look

forward to working in partnership with you all.
